Rand Paul on Gulf spill: "Accidents happen"

AP: On the oil spill, the Kentucky GOP candidate -- a libertarian and tea party favorite -- said today he "had heard nothing from BP indicating it wouldn't pay for the spill that threatens devastating environmental damage along the Gulf of Mexico coast.

" 'And I think it's part of this sort of blame-game society in the sense that it's always got to be somebody's fault instead of the fact that maybe sometimes accidents happen,' Paul said."
